举一反三
It is often said that the language we use online is less formal than that we use in a letter, or in direct speech sometimes. This is true, but it can also make us in trouble sometimes.
The thing about online communication is that you have no idea what the person who is reading your messages is feeling. For this reason, it is always a good idea to be polite and cautious when writing e-mails or messages to your friends.
Chinese can be a direct language, but in English, people often talk about a subject in another way. So instead of saying “Please meet me here” or “Do this for me now”, English speakers usually go for indirect phrases like “Would it be possible”, “if you have time” or “It would mean a lot to me if…”
If you have a close friend, you may still run into trouble because of your jokes. If you have asked someone to do something and they need a bit more time, you might joke with him: “What? You still haven’t done it yet? What’s wrong with you?” While this seems funny to you, your friend may feel unhappy.
If you have foreign friends in different countries, the time difference can also be a factor. While you are waking up for class on Friday morning, they may be having a party on Friday night. You will be serious and they will, probably, be excited. So don’t be angry if they seem not to care about you. Just try to message them at the proper time.
小题1: According to the passage, we learn that our letters are more ______ than the e-mails.
| A．formal | B．direct |
| C．different | D．funny |
| A．polite | B．rude |
| C．direct | D．formal |
| A．Because we mustn’t play jokes online. |
| B．Because our friends are easy to be angry. |
| C．Because it can help us avoid lots of troubles. |
| D．Because we can’t see our friends online. |
| A．It is OK to connect your friend by MSN anytime. |
| B．Using the proper way to chat online is necessary. |
| C．Don’t ask your friend to do something for you by MSN. |
| D．Never play jokes with your friends. |
Why is this? One possible reason is the way your parent treat you. First –born children receive all the attention from their parents. Most families have twice as many photos of a first-born than any other child. Parents usually give first-born more responsibilityand depend on them to take care of younger brothers and sisters. As a result, first -born are often responsible, hard-working, and jealous. They often want to do well at school and work. There are more first-born American Presidents, for example, George Bush, George Washington, andLyndon Baines Johnson-than second or last-born children.
When a second child arrives, parents are more relaxed. The second child has to competewith the first-born for the parents, attention and love. Their children often choose different sports and hobbies to do well at school and work, but have to be creative to get their family’s attention. They are often friendly and cool. Many famous talk-show hosts were born last.
小题1:The writer thinks that the second children are often ___.
| A．outing and jealous | B．cool and friendly |
| C．hard-working and serious | D．creative and responsible |
| A．友好的 | B．冷静的 | C．快乐的 | D．嫉妒的 |
the passage.
| A．The eldest child | B．The second child |
| C．The youngest child | D．The father |
| A．the second child is very similar to the first-born child |
| B．brothers and sisters usually have the same personalities |
| C．it’s easy for the second child to get his or her parents’ attention |
| D．there are more first-born successful people than second or last-born people |
| A．birth order and personalities |
| B．the personalities of the second child in a family |
| C．the personalities of the eldest child in a family |
| D．the personalities of the youngest child in a family |

William Bennett
Thanksgiving Day was coming. The first grade teacher gave her class a fun assignment (作业) — to draw a picture of for which they were thankful.
Most of the class might be considered poor, but still many would the holiday with turkey and other traditional food of the season. These, the teacher thought, would be the subject of most of her students’ art. And they were.
But Douglas made a(an) kind of picture. Douglas was a different kind of boy. He was the teacher’s true child of weak and unhappy. As other children played at , Douglas used to stand close by her side. One could only guess at the pain that Douglas felt behind those sad .
Yes, his picture was different. When he was asked to draw a picture of something for which he was thankful, he drew a . Nothing else. Just an empty hand.
His abstract (抽象的) picture caught the of his classmates. Whose hand could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, because farmers turkeys. Another suggested a police officer, because the police protect and people. Still others guessed it was the hand of God, for God feeds us. And so the discussion went on — until the teacher almost forgot the young artist .
When the children had gone on to other assignments, she stopped at Douglas’ desk, bent down, and him whose hand it was. The little boy looked away and murmured, “It’s yours, teacher.”
She recalled the when she had taken his hand and walked with him here or there, as she had the other students. How she had said, “Take my hand, Douglas, we’ll go outside.” Or, “Let me show you how to hold your pencil.” Or, “Let’s do this together.” Douglas was very for his teacher’s hand. Brushing aside a tear, she went on with her work.
The story speaks of more than thankfulness. It says something about teachers teaching and parents parenting and friends showing friendship, and how much it means to the Douglases of the world. They might not always say thanks, but they’ll remember the hand that out.

Mr. Clark worked long hours, making sure I did my work. My grades rose. In fact, the scores of our whole class rose. One day, he took our class to see The Phantom of the Opera, and it was the first time some kids had ever been out of Harlem. Before the show, he treated us to dinner at a restaurant and taught us not to talk with our mouths full. We did not want to let him down.
Mr. Clark was selected as Disney’s 2000 Teacher of the Year. He said he would draw three names out of a hat; those students would go with him to Los Angles to get the award. But when the time came to draw names, Mr. Clark said, “You’re all going.”
On graduation day, there were a lot of tears. We didn’t want his class to end. In 2001, he moved to Atlanta, but he always kept in touch. He started giving lectures about education, and created a bestseller based on his classroom rules, The Essential 55. In 2003, Mr. Clark took some of us on a trip to South Africa to deliver school supplies and visit orphanages （孤儿院）. It was the most amazing experience of my life. It’s now my dream to one day start a group of women’s clubs, helping people from all backgrounds.
